This article discusses the correlation between the diameter and Breslow thickness of melanoma, a type of skin cancer. Traditionally, the diameter has been used as a diagnostic criterion for melanoma, but new imaging techniques have challenged this approach. The study found that there is a weak correlation between diameter and Breslow thickness, suggesting that a small diameter does not necessarily indicate a low risk of invasiveness. The authors argue that using diameter as a diagnostic criterion may lead to the overlooking of invasive melanomas. [Extracted from the article] |
